Design
Use the marker to draw out the design you want to make.
Sawing
First I used my dremel to cut it to length. Then I cut out the fork section of the spork. (Optionally you could use a round needle file to make a serrated section.) Then i filed the prongs of the fork to a sharp point and filed all the cut pieces round.
Sanding
I used sanpaper from 120-400 grit to smooth all the edges so i wont cut myself.
Washing
After i sanded everything I first washed it with regular dish soap and then put in the dishwasher to get it completely clean of any metal filings
Use It!
In the end it worked out really nicely and it was very easy to make. It's a great tool for camping because it's the only utensil you'll ever need and its pretty lightweight and durable. I hope you liked my instructable! Leave a comment if you have any suggestions
